Join us for a timely discussion on the recent results and implementation insights from new methane detecting satellites. An increasing number of satellites will find and measure methane emissions with unparalleled precision - including emissions that other satellites simply can’t see – and this is changing the landscape of how people think about large methane emission events. 
This panel will explore: 
•    What is the role of space borne observations in emissions monitoring and what insight can they provide into the methane intensity of natural gas production
•    How data standardization can enhance comparability and benchmarking across observation platforms and groups estimating methane emissions from space. 
•    What to be aware of when using satellite observations of methane and what it may mean for your organizations emissions reporting practices 
•    What types of data are available through the Greenhouse Gas Center and how you can use them for Emissions Data Integration
 

 
11:10 AM - 11:35 AM

International benchmarks are increasingly shaping policy design worldwide. Join us for an overview of reporting standardization, emerging policy trends, and more. 
Understand how trends, particularly those in other major economies, can help organizations anticipate and prepare for evolving domestic reporting requirements.

Supply chain transparency is moving towards the centre of management obligations. Scope 3 emissions across a company's value chain typically account for 70-90% of its total carbon footprint, and remain among the most challenging to measure and manage. Pressure is growing from large industrial buyers, LNG shippers, utilities and key Asian and European markets for producers to measure, monitor and reduce emissions, deforestation and other impacts, from wellhead to burner tip, as well as to maximize benefits for project affected communities. Join us for a discussion about how operators across the value chain are working to mitigate these risks through technology, management and third-party assurance.
